mitleerenhänden English translation
von Edwin Rosen

And yes, I know you're looking for him
But there is no one here except me
I stand there with empty hands
And ask yourself if you want to dance with me

I stand there completely disappointed
Dance alone through the empty hall
And you just stand there
With crossed arms
Don't give me a look
Don't look at me


And yes, I know you're not here
And yet I pretend to dance with you
I stand there with empty hands
And dance alone through an empty hall

I stand there completely disappointed
Dance alone through the empty hall
And you just stand there
With crossed arms
Don't give me a look
Don't look at me

And yes, I know there is nothing here
That's why I lie there and dream about you
I lie there empty-handed
And ask myself what my mistake was
